1. A electromagnetic field mitigation system comprising:
- a linear alternator or linear motor comprising;
a magnet linearly movable along a path; and
an alternator coil positioned about the magnet and configured to generate an electromotive force, resulting in a first magnetic field;
a mechanism coupled to the linear alternator or linear motor to linearly oscillate the magnet along the path; and
a mitigating coil positioned about the linear alternator or linear motor and configured to generate a second magnetic field, wherein the second magnetic field is configured to cancel out an externally emitted portion of the first magnetic field.

Abstract
Apparatus, methods, and other embodiments associated with mitigation of magnetic fields are described herein. In an embodiment, a method for mitigating an electromagnetic field includes positioning a mitigating coil around a linear alternator of linear motor so that the mitigating coil is coaxially located with an alternator coil; arranging the mitigating coil to generate a field to mitigate an electromagnetic field generated by the alternator coil; and passing an induced current from the alternator coil through the mitigating coil.
